“作为一款微恐解谜的像素风RPG游戏,需要玩家扮演一名少女来寻找孤儿院被大火焚毁的真相,体验下来在游戏内容上是推理解谜大于剧情的,虽然带有恐怖元素,但是游戏内没有瘆人的音效和跳脸剧情。蜡烛设计也是本作的一大卖点,不仅仅是照明的工具,更是打开里世界的钥匙。优秀的美术表现,主线角色全配音,都是游戏的优点。最重要的是还有免费的官方攻略DLC,大大降低了难度,目前游戏还在绝赞更新中,支持一下绝对买不了吃亏!”

About This Game

Story Summary

You play as Veloria, a high school girl who wakes up in a place that feels both familiar and strange. Following traces of her memory, she solves puzzles and meets strangers who seem oddly familiar. What she seeks is not just a way out—but the ultimate truth: Who is she? And why has she returned to this place?

The girl awakens in front of a gloomy orphanage.
Ashes swirl in the air, revealing a truth long buried: the real orphanage was consumed in a fire many years ago.
What stands here now is a distorted world, pieced together from fragments of memory.
In search of the truth, she steps through its doors.
Shrouded in eerie darkness, the building reveals its secrets only by the faint glow of candlelight…

Character Descriptions

"This is You" — Veloria
A timid and introverted girl who dislikes social interaction.
She has a kind heart and is extremely persistent when it comes to things she deems necessary.
Due to her struggle with expressing herself, she often appears emotionless.

"This is You as a Child" — Veloria

Grace

Harboring unspeakable secrets with "Grace's Home,"

appearing as a doll and moving with great difficulty,

always presenting an air of arrogance and having a fondness for colorful things.

Ethan
Soft-spoken like a girl, yet lively and passionate, capable of warming others with his presence.
As a child, his maturity led him to become Vellaria’s closest friend, relying on her deeply.
He enjoys savoring the amber candy Vellaria gave him, letting its sourness erode his teeth until the taste of rust—like Vellaria’s hair—seeps through.

Ella
Born with severe brittle bone disease, she is paralyzed from the waist down and confined to bed.
Always wearing a gentle smile, she rarely shows any strong emotions, possessing a maturity beyond her years.
She treats Vellaria with exceptional kindness.

Grian
The only teacher at Grace's Home, responsible for educating the children in various subjects, adored by them all.
Though an adult in appearance, he retains a childlike heart, often seeming foolishly innocent.
He frequently tells corny jokes to the children, though few respond—except for Vellaria.

Vianna
Claims to be your best friend.
